That Tender Touch (1969)

Member Rating:

Following a near rape, a deeply traumatized orphan girl has a sexual liaison with an aging lesbian. The relationship goes well until the confused girl meets a kind young man who proves that not all of his ilk are contemptible. She is convinced and she marries him, but she does not discuss her earlier relationship with him. Trouble brews when the two former lovers meet at a party. Lonely, the older woman tries to rekindle their affair, but the young wife spurns her. This leads to tragedy. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

B-grade exploitation. 2 R-rated scenes, second-rate acting. A few memorable lines: (counsel after rape) "Some men are like that. You just have to forget it." (older woman to flirtatious teenage girl): "Someday you'll appreciate the savagery of a man instead of the tender touch of a woman." (Girl gushing about photographer asking her to model): "He wants me to dress up in animal suits!" Explores the anxiety and angst of a relationship between two former lovers when one has moved on and gotten married. Written by a man who obviously does not understand much about homosexual women. But he did it in 88 minutes! Amazing!

This is an interesting film. Lesbianism during the 1960Ê»s and 1970Ê»s were such sensitive issue to discuss. Today, we may be exposed to the content (via LGBT), but during that time: it was intense for myself to watch because of the dynamics occurred (in that time period). Overall, I had enjoyed it very much so. It is a great film to watch and enjoy the historical sense with "homosexuality" with Lesbianism in America around 1969. I love it.
